“I work in the mall, and come here often for a quick bite to eat. The management and all of the employees here are so friendly, approachable and professional. I’ve never had a bad experience here, and they always have me coming back!!“

“I ate at the Monroe store today. I had never been at a Buubakoos before and did not know what to expect. I had the pork burrito and it was off the hook. The place was spotless and the service was spot on. The manager came over and introduced himself as John and asked if everything was satisfactory, and it was more than satisfactory. You would think John was the owner not just the manager, he cared as if was his own business. It was good to see that. I will be back for sure, my new go to place.“

“I was excited for this place to open up at this location.. In the past I have experienced subpar/poor customer service with Qdoba in the Philadelphia/MontCo region. Very happy to say the staff greeted me as I walked in and it was a normal pleasant fast food/casual restaurant experience. Food was fresh.
Sure hope it stays that way!“

“Muy buena comida !!! Excelente!!!“

“Tried El Buen Sabor Poblano in North Brunswick and had a great experience. We ordered the grilled pork plate with rice, beans, salad, and avocado, plus enchiladas with green salsa. Everything tasted fresh and authentic, and the portions were very generous. The pork was flavorful with a nice char, and the green sauce on the enchiladas had the perfect tangy kick. Chips and salsa were also a great start to the meal. Definitely a great spot for authentic Mexican food in the area!“

“Plaza Azteca is a must-visit! The atmosphere is incredibly vibrant and lively, making it the perfect spot for a great night out. The food comes in generous portions, and the drinks are top-tier, crafted with fresh ingredients and topped with beautiful edible garnishes. What really makes the experience is the staff. Everyone is so friendly and personable, and they always provide the best recommendations based exactly on what you’re in the mood for. Definitely recommend!“

“Just ate an absolutely delicious burrito. My dad had a bowl. Everything was amazing BUT, THE CARMAL CHURROS AND THE GUAVA EMPANADA were just the best I've ever had. My mouth is watering for those churros. Can't go wrong eating here. Im from Miami but asoon as im in the area again here is where im eating.“

“Authentic is the exact word for this place! Not one place comes close to this!“

“Tuvimos un festejo de cumpleaños y María nos ayudó personalmente a planear el menú para la fiesta, me entregaron todo super ordenado, en tiempo y calientito, y sobre todo la comida con muy buen sabor, a todos nos encantó la comida, quedamos muy satisfechos ! gracias de nuevo por toda la ayuda, super recomendados✨“

“Had been wanting to try Chapin for a while, but the cash only setup made it a bit tricky at first. Finally came prepared with the right change (and then some).

The place has limited about 3-4 people seating with stools on opposite sides of the wall. Tried their beef burrito — total came to $14.75 with a side of Tamarindo. Fair enough by Princeton standards. The taste? Solid. Not something that’ll knock your socks off, but definitely good value for the price. Noticed it’s a spot frequented by Latino customers — so I trust they know the authentic flavors far better than I do as an outsider. All in all, worth the visit if you’re in the area and craving something casual“

“Stopped at the new Tesla Supercharger down the block. Not many good food options on site but we found Sam’s thru google search. With Boars Head meats and great reviews we had to give it a try! So glad we did! Very generous portions and good bread too. Amazing Jersey Subs!! The place had a steady stream of customers coming in too while they crafted our sandwiches which proved it’s well loved by the locals. They have some picnic tables just outside! Sam I recommend you move down the block next to the charger or once the Tesla Supercharger location is added to the Google maps (I submitted a request to google already) you need to get people to add a review mentioning your deli there.“

“BUENA comida, buena atención y muy bueno el show con karaoke, especialmente la cantante Claudia“

“Muy buena la comida y todo pero pésimo servicio al cliente. Al tomarte tu orden por teléfono no tienen paciencia ni atención al cliente. Me llamaron dos veces para confirmar mi orden para que a última hora me la cancelaran. Muy mala experiencia.“

“Everything was Great haven’t had Tacos that Good ever“

“Amazing and healthy food with the freshest ingredients at an affordable price. What’s not to like? Plus the owner is very charitable and gives back to the community. The hot sauce and queso are a must-try. You’ll keep coming back, guaranteed.“

““I didn't have a reservation, but they seated me immediately and treated me very kindly. The young lady who served us was very patient with the children about the food and an excellent host.” I ordered a Molcajete which was delicious and thanks to the children I even ate fries. I recommend them.“

“We recently dined at Taste of Mexico and tried the chicken fajitas. The chicken was well seasoned and flavorful, and the rice and beans were a great addition to the overall meal. However, I found the portion of chicken to be small, which was a bit underwhelming. Additionally, the vegetables, which are meant to be a side, ended up taking over the plate. While the overall taste was good, a better balance between the chicken and vegetables would have made this a more enjoyable meal. In addition to the chicken fajitas, we ordered the carne enchiladas, which were served along a bed of rice, beans, and a simple green salad. The grilled pork in the enchiladas was marinated well and juicy. The carne complimented the sautéed tomatoes, onions, and jalepeños tenderly filled inside the enchiladas. The carne enchiladas was a well-sized dish and was quite delectable. Now onto the star of the meal... The Tres Leches Cake. The sponge-like cake, soaked in the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and cream, was a symphony of richness and delight to our taste buds. Despite the prevalence of milk, the dish never felt heavy and continued to be light and luscious till the very last bite.

Vegetarian options: Lots of great vegetarian options. Black/pinto beans, rice, guacamole, vegetable platters, vegetable enchiladas.

Parking: Lots of parking behind(free), paid street parking on the main downtown street and, paid parking garage situated behind the Princeton public Library

Kid-friendliness: Great quaint spot, friendly for kids of all ages

Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is primarily flat ground with no steps. There is a slight slope which the restaurant is located on, however this is very slight, but just a FYI!“

“We came for the first time and the restaurant was very clean and welcoming. The menu had a variety of authentic Mexican food. We ordered lengua quesadillas, torta de bistec y bistec entomatado fajitas. We were starving. Omg!! The food arrived hot and fresh. EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS!!! The bread for the torta was toasted and buttered and it tasted like they baked the bread from scratch themselves. A huge plus. The amount of food was very good ?. I love Mexican food pero yesterday it reached another level. So the lengua quesadillas, were out of this world delicious, it was well prepared, seasoned and cooked to perfection ??! Oh and everything had fresh avocado ?, it wasn’t black or sour how other restaurants try to serve you. I will be coming 3X’s a week if not more. Also, did I mention they make pizza!!! As you can tell I love food. I definitely recommend stopping by and treating your taste buds!! ☺️“

“I mostly get take out and order the same thing. I want to try eveything but I love the fried Porgy fish with rice and beans with salad and plaintains. The owner Rudy is great!!! He's so welcoming and inviting and he has great energy. You're sure to have a great mean and great interactions at this establishment!!!“
